ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES: Provides with respect to microbreweries
This bill updates Louisiana laws to clarify how alcoholic beverages can be transferred between microbreweries. It allows a licensed wholesaler to move up to fifty percent of the total manufactured drinks from one microbrewery to another, provided the receiving brewery has a brewing system of at least ten barrels. The legislation directly affects microbreweries and wholesalers by setting a specific equipment requirement for breweries that wish to receive these transfers. This change aims to streamline the supply chain for small-scale brewers while maintaining standards for production capacity.
